SEASIDE!!! With da Girls!

So for Chelsea's graduation party she wanted to go to Seaside with all her sisters, isnt that awesome? How many peeps do you know at 18 that wanna hang out with their sisters instead of friends? Thats cus Chelseas Awesome!! So we all planned a girl getaway to Seaside for a whole week right after she graduated. We stayed at my parents timeshare resort, which was sooo nice, had a pool and hot tub and was literally on the beach. And even better was the weather! It never rained and was partly sunny all week. We had a blast! It was Mandi, Me, Jennie, Kimi (our new sister in law married to eldon this last october who now lives in hillsborough OR) and of course Chelsea. We left sunday night and stayed until friday. We just hung out and relaxed and basically did whatever we fancied.
We each painted each others toes, went to breakfast, went window shopping where we all bought a sweatshirt.....oh how I miss sweatshirts and WA cloudy weather.......played around in a fun hat shop......watched movies, made meals, we played softball and a 3 hour game of volleyball, had a bonfire with hotdogs and smores, went to cannon beach and built a sand temple and had lunch on the beach, traveled down to tillamook Cheese factory and stopped at all kinds of lookouts on the way down, went to the aquarium, got salt water taffy.....etc, it was a lot of fun, and to was great to have no schedule to go by. Mean while Grandma was watching all 5 of the grandkids, two of which are still babies.....she said she had fun with em and thoroughly enjoyed it. And of course Kyren didnt even miss me, he waved goodbye and my mom said he was great, didnt cry, wasnt whiny and just wondered around the house.




We had a bubble fight after the bonfire cuz all our feet were freezing, but the jets in the tub kinda sent the bubbles crazy.

We all got these sweatshirts the first day we were there.

About Me

We are both students at the University of Pittsburgh in the Neuroscience program. We graduate April 26 2009!! Loni is 23 and Jordan is 24. Jordan would like to be a doctor in the Air Force...as a career and has just finished applying to medical schools. I am pregnant and ready to be a little mom. We are both way to ready to graduate. Jordan is working as the Tech guy for the University's Jazz band, which he loves. I am currently working as a computer consultant on campus...its a very easy job, very school friendly. Jordan is the Gospel principles teacher in our ward and I am the new second counselor in the Young womens, so I am over the Beehives. Jordan does great at his calling and loves to "vent", and I love mine, the beehives are awesome...definitely the best ones of the pick. On the side we are both landlords, which is turning out to be a cinch so far.
